Adding a subwoofer will make your music sound awesome without you needing to buy an expensive new amplifier or car stereo. This post will show you how easy it is to add a subwoofer to your system – and how you’ll never want to go back.

What You Need To Get Started
To get started, you’ll need a couple of things. First, you’ll need to find a subwoofer that matches the size of your car and the type of music you’ll be playing in your car. If you’re not sure what size subwoofer to get, it’s best to measure the available space in your car’s trunk or backseat. If space is limited, go with a 10-inch subwoofer. For more space, get a 12-inch subwoofer.
Once you’ve found the right size for your car, make sure that the subwoofer has an amp built-in or has enough power to run off its own amplifier without affecting sound quality. You can also purchase a 3rd party amp if you want or need more power capabilities than offered by the built-in amplifier on your new speakers.
Lastly, pick up some speaker wire and an RCA cable – they should have cables in the box with your new speakers. To hook everything up correctly without any cutting or splicing wires, just connect one end of each wire to the corresponding color at each speaker terminal – red goes to red and black goes to black. Then connect one end of each speaker wire (+/-) on one side of RCA cable into corresponding terminals on opposite ends (red onto Red/White on receiver/amplifier). Connect other ends onto corresponding terminals on amp and subwoofer (L&R).
The Difference Between Amplifiers and Speakers
An amplifier is a device that boosts the signal from your computer, smartphone, or other audio device so that it can drive a set of speakers. An amplifier takes the low-powered signal and turns it into something powerful enough to produce quality sound. Speakers are designed to take input from an amplifier and use their own power to amplify the signal.
You might be wondering why you need an amp at all if your speaker has its own power. The answer is simple: it’s tough to get the best sound without an amp. Without a proper amp, the music will be too soft and noisy, making listening difficult and uncomfortable.
Benefits of Using an Amp with Your Speaker
The benefits of using an amp with your speaker are many. For one, the amp will amplify the sound coming out of your speaker, which will make it louder and clearer. It’s also a great way to protect your speakers from damage when they’re turned up to high volume levels. Without an amp, the speakers have to work harder to produce that same volume level. This means over time, the speakers will wear down and eventually die.
So if you want your aftermarket speakers to last, you need to plug them into an amp for optimum performance!
How to Tell if Your Speakers Need an Amp
If your speakers are of the small variety, you may not need an amp to produce good sound. If your speakers are larger, however, it’s worth investing in an amp because you’ll get better sound quality.
There are some other factors that go into whether or not you need an amp. For instance, if you’re using a speaker to hear music while sitting on your couch or at a desk in your office, then the volume and clarity of sound might not be as important as if you were listening to music in a concert hall with no amplification whatsoever.
The bottom line is: If you’re trying to decide between getting a new speaker and an amplifier or just getting a new speaker, always choose the amplifier route for better sound quality.
Can You Use an Aftermarket Speaker without an Amp?
You can use an aftermarket speaker without an amp if you have a smaller speaker. However, if you want to listen to louder music with good quality, it is better to use an amp. An amplifier can help the sound from your speaker travel longer distances without getting distorted.
An amplifier will also help the sound from your speakers come through clearer. If you are using a large speaker for your home theatre or a presentation for work, in particular, their sound will be too soft and noisy without an amp.
Different amplifiers may require different sorts of connectors on the back of your speakers. If this is the case, you will need to get adapters that can convert the connection to whatever type of connector the amplifier requires. This could be a simple task or it could require some shopping around.
For smaller speakers, it might not make that much of a difference whether or not you plug them into an amp.
In smaller speakers, it might not make much of a difference whether or not you plug them into an amp. For example, if you’re listening to the speaker in your bedroom and you’re less than ten feet away from it, then there’s no need for an amp. But if you’re trying to make use of a larger speaker, like one on your patio that can’t be easily moved closer to your ears, then it would be best to plug it into an amp. This is because amps amplify the low-powered speaker and give it more oomph so that the music will be easier to hear and listen to.
Another consideration is that without an amp, a large speaker will always be too soft and noisy with distorted sound. If you’ve never heard music through a large speaker without an amp before, it can be overwhelming at first. The bass is so loud that it shakes the furniture in your house. And if you want any music at all in the song, then you have to turn up the volume so loud that all conversation becomes impossible.
For larger speakers, the lack of an amp means that the music will be too soft and noisy, making listening difficult and uncomfortable.
For larger speakers, the lack of an amp means that the music will be too soft and noisy, making listening difficult and uncomfortable. The solution? You can still use your speaker without an amp by plugging it into a device like your computer or smartphone. The downside is that these devices don’t have enough power to produce sound as loudly as you might want.
